Hello. We are planning to book a 2 days cruise with Orchid Classic Cruise March 12th. We need to take a flight to Hue the day of departure, on March 13h at 19h25. Do you think we will have time to catch the plane or should we plan to take a later flight? Thanks Eddie

Answered by Annie 3 weeks, 4 days ago

Dear Eddie, Yes, you will have plenty of time if your flight is at 19:25. We can assist you with the airport transfer as follows:

Option 1: Shuttle bus Halong - Hanoi & connecting sedan car to the airport 
=> Cost: US$ 55 for 2 persons, you will reach the airport at 15:00 - 15:30 => Flights after 16:30 are okay
Option 2: Private sedan car Halong - Hanoi airport 
=> Cost: US$ 100 for 2 persons, you will reach the airport at 14:00 - 14:30 => Flights after 15:30 are okay

In case you keep the flight at 19:25, I would suggest you return to the Old Quarter to go around and then transfer to the airport later, as it is too early. I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries.

Best regards,
Annie (Ms.)

Dear Rekha Datla, Orchid Cruise disembarks at 11:30 and you will reach the airport at around 14:00. I am afraid it may be quite a rush thus you may consider the following suggestions:

- Taking a speedboat to return to the pier earlier (cost around US$ 80 - US$ 100)
- Consider the cruises that disembark earlier (at around 10:30 - 11:00), for example, Indochine Cruise, Paradise Cruise, Ambassador Cruise, Bhaya Cruise, Capella Cruise, Heritage Cruise, etc.

I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries.

Where does the bus leave us and where are we supposed to be for check in? I would like to ask too about the cancellation policy in case of bad weather. Our dates include the Ha Long Bay at the end of the trip so it would be difficult to rearrange dates in that case and will only consider refund if we can't take it. Will that be possible?

The cost is around US$ 70 - 150 depending on the actual time you arrive at the cruise pier. It is a short distance from the cruise ship port to Tuan Chau Pier, where the cruise starts so you can simply take a taxi. In case you need a private van, we offer sedan car for 2 persons at US$ 25/way. I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries. Best regards, Annie (Ms.)

Dear April, The transfer from Hanoi is not included in the price. February is early spring in Vietnam, it is getting warmer so it's good for swimming and doing water activities. In the daylight, it is very comfortable with light sunshine and wind. In general, it's good for sailing. If you have any further questions or need our help on booking the cruise, please feel free to let us know. Best regards, Bonnie (Ms.)

The option with extra bed costs less than 2 cabins because the 3rd person will need to pay for a single cabin if taking a separate one.

Dear Vikko, Thank you for your email! We are so happy to hear from you! For your questions: (1) The bus cannot pick you up right at the train station but you can walk to Mercure La Gare hotel (about 100m from the station) to have breakfast there and wait for the bus. As far as I know the hotel serves breakfast for $10/person and you can have a rest at the lounge too until the bus picks you up. (2) The bus will pick you up at Mercure hotel at about 8.00am and if the train is late, we can wait until 8.30am but as per our experience, the train from Sapa will not too late until 8.00am (unless there is disaster such as flood or landslide in Sapa and stop all the trains). As per the update, Orchid Classic Cruise is fully booked on 22 Nov already so can you please consider Orchid Trendy Cruise as an alternative? Should you have other questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Best regards, Cindy

Dear Viraj, Thank you for your questions! (1) As your kid is under 5 years old, he/she can stay free of charge with parents and Orchid Cruise can provide a crib for your kid. Besides, you can surely join all activities and the staff can help look after your baby. (2) While there is no age restriction for visiting caves, it is advisable to keep your child outside for their safety and easier movement. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us! Best regards, Lily

Dear Anamika Jain, Thank you for your question. If your flight is on time and you can leave the port by 9:30 AM, you can still make it on time for the overnight trip on the same day. We offer a private car from Hanoi airport straight to the cruise pier at US$ 120 for 4 persons. You can also consider Doris Cruise. This cruise starts later at around 12:15 - 12:30 so you can have a bit more time. Or may I ask if you have booked the flights? As you can also consider a flight to Cat Bi Airport in Hai Phong, which takes only 1 hour to transfer to the cruise pier. I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries. Best regards, Annie (Ms.)

Dear Su Yu Xiang, Thank you for your question! As the shuttle bus only picks up at a specific time after the cruise, so you will need a private car transfer to get back to Hanoi. Or you can stay in Halong for one more night, and the next day, you can come back to the harbour at around 11:30 AM and the shuttle bus can pick you up. Please let me know which option is more suitable for you! Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us! Best regards, Lily

Dear Lisa Do, Thank you for your question. The 3 days 2 nights itinerary of Orchid Classic Cruise will visit Lan Ha Bay and not visit TiTov Island, so that does not include seeing the bay from a view point. If you want to hike to the top for panoramic view of the bay, you can consider cruises to visit Halong Bay such as Ambassador Cruise, Paradise Elegance Cruise, Athena Luxury Cruise, Phoenix Cruise, etc. Also, the cruise is surely suitable for a 5-months pregnant woman, because when traveling on a cruise, the waves are very light so it does not affect pregnant women. Please let us know if you have any further questions about booking Best regards, Helen

Dear Mr. Alex, Thank yor for your interest in our service. The Suite Balcony Room does fit 2 adults and 2 kids. However, for the most comfort, you should book an extra bed for one kid and the other shares the bed with parents. Otherwise, the Family Connecting Suite will be the most ideal option for your family. I hope this works for you. Should you need more information, please feel free to ask. Best regards, Mary (Ms.)

Answered by Amber 9 months, 2 weeks ago
Dear Gabriela Morales, Thank you for your email! Please kindly be advised that Orchid cruise departs from Got ferry in Hai Phong while Seaplane departs from Tuan Chau Marina so they are far from each other around 1-hour drive. If you want to take Seaplane you should choose the cruise which departs from Tuan Chau, so after cruise tour, the staff from the Seaplane office will drive an electric car to the cruise port to pick you up (subject to availability). If you still want to take the Orchid cruise then you need to book a private car to Tuan Chau marina to take Hai Au tour. Furthermore, there is only one time-frame for the shuttle bus to back to Hanoi which is at 11:30 AM. Therefore, if you do a Scenic tour by seaplane, you need to arrange the transfer back to Hanoi by yourself or we can arrange a private car for you. Please discuss with your partner and let me know your final decision for your trip so I can arrange everything for you. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon. Best regards, Amber (Ms.)

Dear Ami, Thank you for your question. Kindly note that Orchid Cruise departs from Got Pier and visit Lan Ha Bay which does not include the trip to Ti Top island or Surprising Cave. If you would like to go to Ti Top island, kayaking, and seeing Halong bay, you can consider President Cruise (https://www.halongbaytours.com/cruise/president-cruise.html) or Paradise Elegance Cruise (https://www.halongbaytours.com/cruise/paradise-luxury-elegance.html). Both cruises depart from Tuan Chau Pier and visit Halong Bay. Besides, they have a fixed itinerary to Surprising cave and pearl farm, but optional, thus it is also a good idea if you stay and relax on the sundeck of the cruise. I hope this helps. Should further information needed, please feel free to ask us. Best regards, Mary (Ms.)

Dear Mari Jerkku, Thank you for your question! The shuttle bus costs US$ 40/person/round trip. In the case of traffic jams, all the buses will be late thus the boat will surely leave later but this situation rarely happens. Should you have any further questions, please feel free to ask us! Best regards, Jolie (Ms.)

Dear RECHER, Thank you for your inquiry and we are so happy to hear of your trip plan to Halong Bay. Please kindly note that this special expat deal $160/person including transfer is for guests who have a work permit or temporary residence card (TRCs) in Vietnam. Please let me know if you have one of these documents so I can apply the expat rate for you. Otherwise the normal rate is $330/cabin + $40/person bus round trip. I look forward to hearing from you!

My husband has limited mobility and uses a small (smaller than standard wheelchair) fully collapsible electric scooter for extended walking. He does not require special bathroom or shower. We travelled through Myanmar/Burma with no problem. Is your cruise suitable for him?

Is the transfer from Hanoi included in the price? We also have an option to get a flight from Hanoi in the same day the cruise ends at 15H20.

Dear Ms. Marcella, Thank you for your email and question! Our cost of US$ 1060 does not include transfer. The cost for the shared Limousine bus is US$ 35/person/round trip or US$ 18/person/way. Also, we can arrange for you a private car from the pier straight to the airport at an extra cost of US$ 120 for 3 people. You will reach the airport at around 14:00 thus it would be fine if your flight is domestic. I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries.

Hi, I am very interested in your cruise but need to know a few more details. My husband and I and 18 month old daughter will be travelling. Is your cruise suitable for a toddler or will it be frustrating for the other guests? Do you provide a cot and high chair? Is the transfers to a from the islands flexible- i.e. if she needs to have a nap can we head back to the boat early? or leave for an excursion later if she is still napping? Can I have a small meal for her served earlier for dinner around 6pm? Do you provide appropriate sized life jackets for toddlers or should I bring my own? Are there safety gates on all the stairs? How long is the travel time between Hanoi and the cruise? And on the return stretch are you able to deliver us directly to the airport instead of our hotel? Thank you Aimee

Dear Mrs. Aimee Kettoola, Thank you for your email. My name is Jolie from Halong Bay Tours department and I am very glad to assist you with your trip. We did arrange Orchid Cruise for other families with young children before and 95% of the feedback have been excellent thus I believe it would be no problem. The cruise can surely arrange the cot and high chair in the restaurant for your baby. I would recommend you to take 2 days 1 night trip only since for 3 days 2 nights trip, on the second day you will transfer to a day boat for activities and it is not suitable for children. For 2 days 1 night trip, you can consider to take the activities or stay in your cabin for rest. However, the itinerary of Orchid Cruise is mainly for relaxing thus I hope it is not a big matter for your family. The dinner is at around 7:30 PM. However, if you need to prepare the meals for her earlier, you can ask the restaurant and please inform them soon for the best assistance. For the life jacket, I am sorry that there is only one size for children. You can bring her own life jacket along if needed. The stairs are safe, no worries. The transfer time between Hanoi - Orchid Cruise is around 2,5 hour and you will have a break on the way. I am sorry that the shuttle service is for hotels in Hanoi Old Quarter only. When you get back to the center, you can take a taxi by your own to the airport. I hope to hear from you soon and please let me know if you have any other inquiries. Best regards, Jolie (Ms.)

Would it be possible to book a private car from the airport in Hanoi to the cruise port (my research shows that the one way fare in a private car is about $70-$75 each way), and then we will just take the shuttle service back to Hanoi on the 22nd (for $20)?

Dear M. Logan, Thank you for your question! We can surely arrange the private transfer to pick you up from the airport straight to the cruise (total transfer cost for this option is $140 round trip including express way toll fee). However as you arrive early, I suggest we just picks up from the airport and bring you to Hanoi Old Quarter. You can leave your luggage at your hotel or our office, then have breakfast/coffee break until being picked up at 9:30am by the limousine bus service. This way it will cost you $95 in total for transfer and at a much more comfortable arrangement. I hope this information is helpful and please let me know if you have any other questions!

Dear Ms. Mun, Thank you for your question. It depends on what month you start your cruise as from mid-December on the departure port for Orchid cruise will be moved to Got Pier. Before that it will still be in Dinh Vu port. From Hai Phong airport it is around 10km. If you can advise me your exact trip date I can check with the cruise the correct departure date for you.

Asked by Leong Yin Leng 9 months, 2 weeks ago
Hi, I thought of getting a cruise trip on 29 November 2017. would like to find out the following: 1) Can the pick up be done from a hotel from West lake side (Intercontinental or Sheraton) but drop off at a hotel near the Old quarters (Hotel De L'Opera Hanoi, MGallery By Sofitel or Hanoi La Siesta Diamond Hotel & Spa)? I have not booked my hotels as I am not sure whether the company does pickups and drop offs from the above hotels. How much will that cost? 2) Can we bring our luggage on board or only day bags are allowed? 3) I intend to bring my 75 year old mother along. Are the activities tedious? Can she opt to stay onboard if so? Hope to hear from you soon! Thank you!

Dear Leong Yin Leng, Thank you for your email! As per your concerns, I would like to answer you below: 1. Yes, shuttle bus can pick you up from Intercontinental or Sheraton and drop you off at a hotel near the Old Quarters. Transfer costs US$40/person for sharing luxury van round trip 2. Yes, you can bring your luggage on board 3. Please note Orchid cruise is very suitable for senior people as almost time is for relaxing. The time for activity is just about 30 - 45 minutes and if your mother does not like it, you can surely stay on boat instead. Should other information needed, please feel free to let me know.

Thank you for your question and I am glad to know that you are visiting Halong Bay this November. Orchid cruise shuttle bus cost $40/person/ round trip and it's a very good limousine service. However the bus only drops off in Hanoi Old Quarter around 2:00pm. In case you wish to go directly to the airport, the cost for private transfer round trip is $150. If you are not rushed for time, it's best to return to Hanoi to collect your luggage and then take a taxi to the airport. This will save you extra budget on transfer fee. If you have any other questions please let me know.

Dear So-Jeong Kim, Thank you for your email and our cost for one way transfer from Haiphong airport to Orchid cruise is US $ 29 per one way by private 4 seat car for 2 persons. I am so sorry as our cost at US $ 20 per car is our old cost and transfer cost has risen recently. I highly recommend you to book the flight depart at 08.30AM just in case of the flight delay. It is around 30 minutes transfer from Haiphong airport to Orchid cruise. The cruise will leave the pier at around noon time 11.30 - 12.00 as latest time. At the moment, we still have 01 Suite balcony cabin available on your trip date- 18June for 2days 1night with the cost at US $ 360 for 2 persons travelling. May I know if you need the return trip back to Hanoi? if yes, you can consider our shuttle bus with the cost at US $ 20 per person. Thank you!

Hello, I would like to book at 2D1N cruise on Tuesday 18th July. We are planning on flying from Da Nang to either Hanoi or Hai Phong on the Tuesday morning, go on the cruise, then stay in Hanoi for a few days afterwards. Firstly, is it better to fly to Hai Phong on the Tuesday morning (arrive at 9:45am) and arrange a transfer from there to the Orchid Cruise pier, instead of flying to Hanoi? Secondly, can we arrange a one-way transfer to Hanoi after the cruise has finished? Kind regards, Joe

Dear Deepak, Thank you so much for your contacting us and please kindly find my comments below: - Actually we offer free of charge for kid under 5 years old, however this policy only offer for 1 kid per 2 adults thus if you are travelling with 2 kids, the second kid will need to pay 50% of an adult cost. By the way, as your travelling with 2 little kids thus I highly recommend you to spend 2 days 1night cruise option instead of 3days 2nights as they are too small to join the second day. As on the second day, you will need to move to another boat (small boat) for cruise further and only return to the big boat in the late afternoon. Thanks for your kind notice and understanding! - About the transfer, our shuttle bus can only do pick up and drop off within Hanoi Center/ Hanoi Old Quarter thus our bus can not drop you off at Cat Bi airport. Therefore, you can consider to go with one way shuttle bus + taxi transfer to Cat Bi airport on your own OR you can go with a private car transfer round trip. The detailed pricing has been emailed to you. Thank you! I look forward to hearing from you, Kind regards,

However, as per our experience July is still a good month to visit Halong Bay (bright and sunny for great activities), and the chance is very slim. Re your flight, you surely have enough time to take flight as it is only 2 hours driving from Hai Phong to Hanoi and you would arrive back hotel at 2pm then you can take a taxi to the airport for your flight.

Will the pick up service be available should we book Somerset? We have a party of 4. How much is the to and fro pick up service from Hanoi to Halong Bay? Any wifi in the cruise?

If you have any questions please let me know! Kind regards,

Dear Stephan, Thank you for your email and please kindly find my comments as below: - Our cost for round trip Hanoi airport -Halong - Hanoi city center is US $ 150 for 2 days1night/ private 4 seat car transfer - You can take one way private pick up from airport and return by luxury minivan, the cost is $130 in this case. It's best if you can fly to Hai Phong which is just 20 minutes from Orchid pier, that will save a considerable transfer cost for you! Should you need any further assistance, please feel free to let me know. It's my pleasure to help! With my best regards, Cindy (Ms)

Dear Ms. Jacqueline, Thank you for contacting us. May I know if you are interested in 2 day or 3 day trip so I can send you the full itinerary? For your information, this is a brand new cruise with unique routing that departs from Hai Phong instead of Tuan Chau, meaning you have to spend less time on the road (only 3 hours instead of 4 hours)- its itinerary is the most unique in Halong Bay. All cabins are spacious 36sqm and have private balcony, promising a comfortable and pleasant trip. I hope this information is helpful and please let me know if you have any questions!

Dear Ms. Alicia, Thank you very much for contacting us! May I know your preferred trip date so I can work out the best price and promotion/ hotel combo for your group? As your group is 7 it is best to arrange a private minivan for transfer to Halong Bay (cost $150) and we can surely pick you up from Movenpick hotel. If you have any question please let me know!

Fewer cabins give us more privacy. We stayed in the suite balcony which includes all modern amenities and a nice view. The booking process was easy and quick. The support was excellent throughout the tour. Staff onboard was friendly and polite. Every activity was enjoyable with smaller group. Highly recommend!

Orchid Classic is the best ship we have ever been on. we also had the most memorable holiday. As a party of 6 (including 3y/o & 5y/o), they made sure we were a well-taken care of family group. The activities were great. In such a relaxed atmosphere, looking for some fun relaxing with a cup of coffee while enjoying the view from deck. The staff on board Merlin kept us entertained during every meal and activity. Halong is a masterpiece, a must see location undoubtedly. We highly recommend this experience, Crossing our fingers to come back to this boat soon!

Amazed with the crew, friendly, and attentive. We could feel their care and attention touching our hearts. We were welcomed from the pier to the transfer boat, and to setting foot on the main ship in a warm and friendly atmosphere. Customer service was unmatched, they treated us as special and unique guests. More than glad that the journey went smoothly and met all our needs with pleasure. Honestly, it was such a perfect trip to Ha Long. Definitely booking this ship again soon!

Really great with free upgrade to upper floor. Room service and cleanliness. Much appreciate the effort of the staff in organizing so many activities, and we had so much to do and chill. Lots of food and spirits. We loved such a private atmosphere and not too noisy. We did not miss out on this. Able to get to know many Vietnamese friends. Great.!!!!

The ship was well maintained and equipped. Our cabin was spotlessly clean and the view was amazing. Buffet was abundant and delicious. The guide was knowledgeable and informative. Everyone was friendly.
More Vietnamese options for dinner would be perfect. Maybe reduce the time of checking on guests’ feedback throughout the trip for more privacy.

The room included everything we needed. The food was really impressive and the staff was helpful in every way. A panoramic view was provided along with a great balcony.
The staff spoke little English. It seems really expensive in this part of Vietnam.
